About this map

The Battle River system and its north and south branches dominate this northern Minnesota landscape, flowing westward toward the expansive waters of Lower Red Lake. This 2016 survey illustrates a rural Beltrami County region where the water network—including the Cormorant River and Arntson Cr—shapes the local geography. The settlement of Saum sits at a crossroads in the northeastern section, while Quiring Township occupies the central and southern reaches.

Genealogists can identify key burial sites such as Quiring Township Cem and Capernaum Cem. The map also details a modest local aviation hub at Helblad Airport and indicates an area designated as Farm Service Agency Interest of Minnesota. A dense network of county and township roads, such as Norske Rd NE and Co Rd 104, provides access to the low-lying, stream-fed terrain typical of the Red Lake watershed.
